Back Cover 2 AUTOMOTIVE AND MACHINE SHOP SECTION MOTIVES AND INCENTIVES By E- A. IRVIN, MJ3. Medical Director, Ford Motor Company, Dearborn, Michigan Mv rubied is motives and incoitivc*. These interesting forces are frequently mis understood or ignored when dealing with li-oplc. To make effective contact with real ity. with other persons and with the outside world, we must contribute some effort to understand man's needs. We must have in sight into and understanding of our own behavior, with an interest in trying to modify it. before we can begin to understand other?. Some forces which act on individual? and help to determine their behavior are internal in nature, or what we may term eorrziitions: itners arc external in origin, which we may call incentives. The best environment is that which gives the individual the convictions and the incentives which will inspire him to exert his best efforts, be they intellectual, manual or artistic, toward the work of the world. That force from within an individual, rather than from without, which incites him to action may be called a motive. Almost all of us have strong convictions. Your convictions may differ from mine, and probably no two of us have the same con victions ; however, we may agree on some ox the more basic ones- Let us consider a Jew which are important. First: There are great opportunities and your chance to succeed depends mainly on your own efforts and ability. Aptitude is important but application is vital. Evalua tion and selection help the individual to coordinate his efforts most satisfactorily. As William Shakespeare said in one of his plays: "The thing that keeps men little is the fear of being great" The courage of your convictions and discretion ni experi ence will help you meet the challenge* i life. Second: There is no *ubiilu!c fur work, ^nd in the long run a life tilled with work is more enjoyable than any other existence. To contribute some effort to a source out side oneself is healthier than a neurotic obsession within une.-cli. To toil by day and still be glad, one must have faith in the future, strength for every deed. Third: Honesty and straightforwardness is the best policy', and we must believe and encourage the practice of this policy not just because it is a policy but because it is right Those with good habits will survive. The an of human relations speaks ox our capacity for fellowship, the conviction of Hjlidaritv that knits togetlter, the aspirations, illusions, joys, sorrow's, hopes, fears, which bind together all humanity. Fourth: We must recognize and appreci ate the dignity nt* man, and recognize him as an individual. There can be no free society where the dignity of the individual is ignored. To raise the individual's evalua tion of self is a worthwhile goal. One must not lower his self esteem. There is no sub stitute for approval--proof oi trust and responsibility* and faith in lu competence. Be ready with praise when it is deserved and sympathetic with failures when they occur. One must lorn to accept painful experiences, whether physical or emotional, they also help to build better personalities. Face your problems--don't try to evade them, they will multiply. The defects we Iosscs? never make tis look a? ridiculous as the virtues we pretend to have. You never know when someone is taking your measure. Fifth: Merely making money and achiev ing power will not give enduring satisfac tion unless they are coupled with abundant and unselfish service to your fellow men. Self respect is a chief factor in determining mental health. The only security is emo tional security. Unfortunately today many an individual believes there are limited opportunities, that success depends largely on pull or luck, that his associate gets ahead because he is the pet of the boss: he believes that his own work is neither recognized nor appreciated. 3 .Wui.'iial Safety Congress IT'S CHEAPER THAN YOU THINK By DONALD W. STITT Asst. Gen. Manager, Industrial Relations, Continental Can Co. New York City Several years ago as a result of general or a lade of a guard, it is quite evident discussion during the development of our that good guarding should be a must or power press safety manual and some tours every piece of moving equipment. through plants which needed improved guarding, our Power Press and Forging Section Committee started to think of ways in which we could stimulate greater Interest in good guarding. From our discussions we came to the conclusion that perhaps one of the stumbling blocks to guarding progress in many companies was a misunderstanding as to the relatively low cost of making good guards. As a result, we decided to expand our Saiety Congress program for 1959 to include the subject "Cheaper Than You Think." We were gratified to see the interest in this subject and have decided tr. make this a regular feature at each Con* gress as long as the interest continues. I recently did a little checking on the cost of accidents involving fingers. I found in one stale a company which had several small plants whidi reported 350 finger in juries during the period of 1954 through 1958, for a total cost of $29,190 or an average cost of $83.40 per injury. An in surance company recently made a study of claims which involved cost of over $2500 per case during the tiro rear period of September 1958 to Septonber I960. They found 142 high cost claims resulting from punch press accidents during this period for a total cost of $705,613 or an average cos: per case of $4,969. If you will take the time to review the I wish to stress the fact that this program maximum amount of compensation awards i? not a duplication of last year's program. for onr various states for finger injuries, We have a completely different set of you find that in ten states indudinp guards to show you and will continue to such heavy industrial states as Connecticut. change the materia! each year so that we Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois and New York may cover as wide a range of guarding the loss of one thumb can cost the employer techniques as possible and also keep you over $3,000 and in one state up to $8250 up-to-date with the most modern methods in compensation alone, to say nothing of available. As the name of this program implies, good guarding is cheaper than many people think. It is our purpose to dononstrate to you today varioc* good guarding techniqueand indicate the approximate cost of them where such information is available. From a purely economic point of view, we in in dustry can't afford not to provide proper guarding for our equipment When you stop to think what one serious accident costs a the result of improper guarding hospital, medical, loss of production and the like. In a number of states the loss of the index finger costs over $2,000 in com pensation alone. I am sure you will agree that it is much better for a company to spend their money for good guarding than for claims costs such as these. So I say to you again, we can't afford not to provide good guarding for our equip ment from the economic point of view alone--to say nothing of our moral obliga tion to protea the safety and health of our employees. 32 OFFICERS OF THE AUTOMOTIVE AND MACHINE SHOP SECTION NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCIL 1960-61 ;.Yneral Chairman--George E.
